Fuel Filler Tube alternate

[librum]

This may be in the wrong section, but the movement and extension of the fuel gate is often done in high lifts, so stuck it here.

The 'fuel gate', #%27936, needs to be moved back towards the rear wheel. Not hard. But the fuel neck, #9034, is too short. Tube in tube? What do the 'high risers' use to extend the tube(s)? I am looking before I do the cut/move.

How much longer do you need? I think the assembly is 3" longer for 93 up rangers, but don't know if it is the hose part that's longer or the metal neck piece. Maybe you could weld a piece of tubing onto the neck that the rubber clamps to?
The length is listed on the detail page at autozone here:
